That’s an interesting question Mark, but the more accurate way to put it will be what will having Coleman there do to the action? How much is the line going to move because people are dumping money on one team because of the ref?

Jim, you’re right, that’s a much better way of phrasing it. The closing line was 3.5, which isn’t a significant movement. I don’t always take the underdog on a Coleman game, because he only seems to influence close games. In this case, I saw little chance of the Redskins getting a blowout, so it seemed like a good game to bet on.

Whats the circle on the back of the crews’ caps this week? who passed away? I know that 3 of the refs family members are having health problems as of late and the NFLRA members are taking up collections between the crews. thanks
